A meeting took place between the council and the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland on Wednesday.

Following discussions, a council spokeswoman said: "Council officers had a productive meeting with the organisers.

"We will continue to engage with both the organisers and the church community - but have agreed that the planned procession will not take place on Saturday."

A spokesman from the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland said: "We welcome the opportunity to continue positive dialogue with Glasgow City Council, the police, and other stakeholders regarding future parades.

"We should be looking forward, not back, and our lodges therefore took the decision to postpone the parade due to take place this Saturday, therefore allowing some additional time over those discussions which would give everyone the opportunity to look at matters from a fresh, forward thinking perspective.
